Actually, this is fairly straightforward C.  If you use a function that there 
hasn't been a prototype for yet, you get the default prototype for that 
function.

No, in the absence of a prototype, C will assume that the return type is "int" 
and the arguments are "...".

This isn't the compiler, this is the language.
